Abstract
The aim of the study was to investigate the negative effects of the usage of Social Media Network (SMN) on the performance of students at An-Najah National University who follow a traditional educational system versus Al-Quds Open University, Nablus city branch who follow a distance educational system. In order to accomplish this aim, a (750) simples random sample of undergraduate students was withdrawn from the colleges of Science and Humanities in both universities: (339) from An-Najah National University and (411) from Al-Quds Open University. A questionnaire which consisted of (31) items reflecting the possible negative effects of (SMN) usages in three domains: academic, social, and health was administered on the study sample. The descriptive statistics in one hand, and the analytic statistics by using “F” test on the other revealed the following results: the performance of students at An-Najah National University (x=3.01) was significantly (α = .000) affected negatively by using (SMN) more than their counterparts at Al-Quds Open University (x=2.66). This negative effect appeared significantly between the two universities on social and health domains but not on the academic one, though the mean on this domain was relatively high at both universities. It placed in the second rank for An-Najah students and in the first one for Al-Quds Open students. F-test on the other hand didn’t show a significant main effect between males and females, but it did show such significants on the other variables. These significant effects were summarized as follows: the students of other colleges such as commercial and social, were affected negatively more than the students of humanities and scientific colleges; freshmen and senior students were more affected than the sophomore or junior students; students whose specializations’ stream at high school in commercial or industrial were affected more than those whose specializations were in literature or science; students who have a weak grade points average at university were affected more than those who have good, very good, or excellent grades; students who spend seven hours daily or more on (SMN) were affected more than those who spend less than seven hours; students who work during their studies were affected more than those who don’t work; and students who don't have a hobby in their life were affected more than those who do have a hobby. Accordingly, the researcher recommended the people who are in charge at universities conduct seminars on the usages of (SMN) and its possible negative effects on students’ performances in order to guide them to use it properly.

الملخص
هدفت الدراسة إلى التعرف على الآثار السلبية لاستخدام مواقع التواصل الاجتماعي على أداء الطالب في جامعة النجاح الوطنية كنظام تعليمي تقليدي مقارنة بأداء نظيره في جامعة القدس المفتوحة كنظام تعليمي مفتوح. ولتحقيق هذا الهدف سحبت عينة عشوائية بسيطة من كليتي العلوم الطبيعية، والعلوم الإنسانية في كلتا الجامعتين على مستوى البكالوريوس بلغت (750) طالبا وطالبة، بواقع (339) من جامعة النجاح، و(411) من جامعة القدس المفتوحة/ فرع نابلس، ووزعت عليهم استبانة تكونت من (31) فقرة عكست الآثار السلبية المحتملة لاستخدام الطالب لمواقع التواصل الاجتماعي في ثلاثة مجالات: المجال الأكاديمي، والمجال الاجتماعي، والمجال الصحي، ثم حللت النتائج باستخدام المنهج الوصفي تارة، والمنهج التحليلي باستخدام اختبار "ف" تارة أخرى، وكانت أهم ما توصلت لها الدراسة هو أن التأثير السلبي لمواقع التواصل الاجتماعي على أداء الطالب في جامعة النجاح (م=3.01) كان أكبر وبفرق له دلالة إحصائية، (ألفا =.000) على أداء نظيره في جامعة القدس المفتوحة (م=2.66)، وظهر هذا الفرق في المجال الاجتماعي، والمجال الصحي، ولم يظهر في المجال الأكاديمي، مع أن متوسط الطلبة على هذا المجال الأكاديمي كان عاليا نسبيا في كلتا الجامعتين، حيث احتل الترتيب الثاني بين المجالات لدى طالب جامعة النجاح (م=3.00)، والترتيب الأول لدى طالب جامعة القدس المفتوحة (م=2.91). من ناحية أخرى، لم يظهر اختبار "ف" فرقا له دلالة إحصائية بين الذكور والإناث، ولكنه أظهر فرقا بدالة إحصائية على متغير الكلية لجانب الكليات الأخرى غير العلمية أو الإنسانية؛ والسنة الجامعية لجانب السنة الأولى والرابعة؛ ومنحى التخصص في الثانوية العامة لجانب التخصصات التجارية والصناعية؛ والمعدل الجامعي لجانب المعدل الضعيف؛ والساعات التي يقضيها الطالب يوميا لجانب السبع ساعات فأكثر؛ ومتغير العمل لجانب الذي يعمل في أثناء الدراسة؛ ومتغير الهواية لجانب الذي ليس له هواية. وبناء على هذه النتائج توصي الباحثة المسؤولين في الجامعات بعقد ندوات حول استخدام مواقع التواصل الاجتماعي وآثارها السلبية المحتملة على أداء الطلبة، وذلك بهدف إرشادهم لاستخدامها بشكل سليم.
